I went to this place after work it was the nearest inspection place trusting that they where going to be legit, but I wasnt surprise how badly that a simple inspection of my vehicle not knowing they where trying to scam me out $600 worth of alleged break repairs, then failing my inspection on purpose, to force me to get the repairs, very typical dishonest mechanics, you got tons of them in that area, just be aware that they will rip you off, I went to my regular mechanic the next day not only did he pass my inspection but double checked the B.S. stories this place tried to scam me off, while my vehicle needed minor adjustments it was nothing major, be careful they would used the Brake system and Tire scams specially when you need your inspection done pre covi scams at its its worst.
This place is a rip off. You have been warned. The manager or whatever he calls himself overcharges for jobs he didn’t do will convince you your vehicle has problems so that he can rip you off further. The guy gave me a quotation of 1500 to fix my car but when I took it to another mechanic, I paid $410 plus labor. This place should be reported to the city.
Do not go there to even put gas in your car, I went for a simple oil change, my car ended up falling off the lift damaging the rear. I had good faith in the owner stating he was going fix the damages. When it came down to to paying for the repairs he and his employees straight up lied denied it ever happened.
If I can. give this place 0 stars I would .If you want honest -good service - DO NOT BRING YOUR BUSINESS HERE! They are a bunch of lying- scammers. You will go in for one thing and all of the sudden you need a bunch of other things and they will deny damage that was done to your car under their watch . I know its important to support your local businesses but not to criminals and that is what they are . This place will be reported to the better business bureaus. I am not one to write bad reviews- however, this place needs to be shut down and GULF needs to stop selling them their gas. They are giving GULF a bad reputation. Do not waste your time or money here. You will thank me later.
WARNING!!!! read the reviews very carefully before you take your vehicle to this guy. he is a thief. people like this guy give us Indians a very bad name. i took my Nissan to this guy to fix and he made it even worse. He deliberately failed me on my nys inspection and lied to me about the depth of the problems with this vehicle. Only for me to get a second opinion from another mechanic and it was not half as bad as this guy told me it was. my car even passed the NYS inspection.
Very dishonest mechanics here. They WILL make up fraudulent charges and fake repairs especially if they think you dont know anything about mechanics. Expect to pay 4 times here what you would pay anywhere else. I dont know how this place is still in business. Shame on the owner

2022-04-30Horrible, they charge way to much and instead of fixing it, they mess up other parts of the car system and then act like if they didn’t do anything. Worst place, don’t even bother going to this trash mechanic, beware as a big warning, i recommend anyone else of finding a better mechanic. Im just trying to help u out to avoid these people so you don’t experience even more problems with your vehicle. This place is a big scam!!!! We gotta make sure this place shuts down.Update#2: this mechanics are no good , don’t bother going to them at all , they will seriously mess your car more and i best recommend important your life than this mechanic and go somewhere else better with great ratings, we almost had a accident due to the belt part broke off since they let it off and car steering wheel got locked up and more.

They’re the WORST

2022-06-02Place is rip off. In fact all the shops are garbage. I would always recommend all to go dealer get diagnostics done and find out issue first. Get the oem parts online like eBay and get it install from a mechanics available at most of the autozone.

2022-07-01Scammers be very careful taking your car there . Will tell your car need something you pay and then they tell you failed inspection after you pay for service that you needed to pass the inspection . Sad to take advantage of people like that.

2020-07-20Came to this repair shop with high hopes. Came in with a broken tail light, and to replace my windshields. And sure enough the people there were quick to help me! and did not charge a large of sum of money for the repairs and the replacement! 10/10 would highly recommend this place for people looking to get a quick, friendly, and fast repair service or those who are looking to replace certain parts for their vehicle!

2021-01-03BEWARE!! BEWARE!! BEWARE!!My car was super fine. I was there for inspection. He failed me on purpose,asked me to spend 400+$ to fix the issues. I refused and later i went to another auto repair for inspection and got passed. The behaviourof the guy who sits in the office is really nasty. He talked to me like he owned me. NEVER EVER WILL GO BACK TO THEM.

2021-01-03They are totally DISHONEST. I changed my brake pads and they were supposed to provide Bosch compnay. After the payment they gave me a receiptt where no where BOSch is written. they just wrote brake change. When i asked the owner showed his true color. Biggest thief in the area. and later i found out they gave me used/worn off brake pads.Never go to this place. NEVER EVER. IF YOU LOVE YOUR CAR!!!
